Similarly, Argentina would like to refer to the explanation of vote given by the States members (Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay) and associate members (Bolivia and Chile) of the South American Common Market (MERCOSUR) when the relevant draft resolution was adopted, in which, aligning themselves with the nearly unanimous rejection of those unilateral measures by the international community, they stated that their application did not contribute to the promotion of a democratic system or to respect for and protection of human rights.
En ese mismo sentido, la Argentina hace presente la explicación de voto efectuada por el MERCOSUR (Argentina, Brasil, Paraguay y Uruguay) y países asociados (Bolivia y Chile) al aprobarse el correspondiente proyecto de resolución, quienes sumándose al rechazo de la casi unanimidad de la comunidad internacional a esas medidas unilaterales expresaron que su aplicación no contribuye a la promoción del sistema democrático y al respeto y la protección de los derechos humanos.
